About the scholarship

The Learning Potential Fund provides support through scholarships and bursaries to students in financial need.

The Len Amos Memorial Scholarship was created in 2000 with funds raised and donated by QUT Chemistry staff over a period of 20 years. The initial $20,000 gift from the staff of the then School of Physical Sciences was matched by QUT and was invested in the QUT Learning Potential Fund endowment.
